Scientific studies show AcceleDent can straighten teeth by up to
twice as FAST! *

AcceleDent is a completely new technology designed to reduce the amount of
time you are in orthodontic treatment. By using the AcceleDent System for just
20 minutes a day, you’ll have a shorter treatment time and all the benefits of
being on the fast track to straight teeth and a truly beautiful smile. The best
thing is, the Acceledent system is comfortable and easy to use.

Dramatically faster treatment times.

AcceleDent is a brand new orthodontic device that effectively and safely
shortens treatment time, which means you end up spending less time in braces or
aligners. AcceleDent painlessly speeds up the process of bone remodeling so that
the braces do their job in a shorter amount of time. Clinical studies have shown
that treatment time is reduced by 30–50%.* This means that if your treatment
time was originally estimated to be 18 months, with AcceleDent, you could be out
of braces in as little as 9 months.

Slight vibrations are the trick.

AcceleDent works by delivering painless vibrations to the roots of your teeth
and to the jaw bone. These vibrations accelerate bone remodeling, the process of
bone tissue being broken down and new bone being created. Bone remodeling
results from the pressure of braces or aligners. It allows teeth to move and
then become stabilised in a new position. AcceleDent simply speeds up this
process in a safe and effective way. AcceleDent is always used in conjunction
with braces or aligners, and is never used on its own.
The patient simply wears a mouthpiece attached to a small device that creates
the vibrations for 20 minutes a day. The device is hands-free and the
high-frequency, gentle vibrations are painless. The patient can conduct routine
activities during treatment, such as reading, light housework, or working on the
computer.

Any patient in orthodontic care can benefit from using AcceleDent, whether
you’re using Invisalign
aligners or braces.

Why are microvibrations so important?The rate of tooth movement
greatly depends on the speed at which the bone surrounding the teeth changes.
Studies have shown that orthodontic force coupled with micovibrations, generated
by the AcceleDent System, safely accelerate tooth movement.Is AcceleDent Safe?AcceleDent has a good safely profile, as
indicated by university studies in humans. AcceleDent is considered safe and
under normal conditions of use with a conventional fixed orthodontic
appliance.If it accelerates tooth movement, will it cause more
discomfort?No. AcceleDent is well tolerated and does not increase the
level of discomfort associated with orthodontic treatment.
